Hi all, here’s my version of Kindful Mini album. I had so much fun making this. The first time I used Rhine stones, wooden chippies, flowers, inspired by you all. I was going to edit my photo like a princess to put it on the front cover😂I have gone crazy. Thank you so much Francės Long for this class. I just love the design and your style of making mini albums😍

I made the beginners mini album V2 for a friend. This is the second time I made this and really like it to give to people who are not scrapbookers. Most of the pictures are 4x6 so it makes it easy to add pictures.

Happy 4th of July. Spending the day in my craft room watching tutorial on big screen.

New class on the way…think travel with you type, capturing memories on the go 😁✍🏼

One of the conversations at the Utah Meetup was about those mysterious ruler measurements... you know, where on earth is 7/8"? 😂
One of the biggest reasons I joined Francis's community was because she took all the guesswork out of scrapbooking. I signed up so I could be creative—not because I wanted to relearn fractions!
Years ago, I finally admitted defeat and printed a picture of a 1-inch ruler with all the 1/8-inch and 1/16-inch markings. I glued it to cardstock, laminated it, and stuck magnets on the back so it lives on the side of my metal storage cabinet under my desk.
Now, whenever I'm working on one of Francis's books and my brain says, "Nope, not doing fractions today," I just pull out my little cheat sheet. No squinting. No counting tiny lines. No math. 😆
I thought I'd share in case anyone else belongs to the "Where's 7/8?" Club. You're among friends! 😉

Completed my first album. First I want to say thank you to Frances for such complete, concise, easy to follow instructions. I made the Mighty Mini Album using Echo Park Bee Happy paper pack. Ribbon is from Michaels. I also used the leftover scraps to make the Veleeta Flipbook which I’m tucking into the album. I’m so hooked! Again thank you Frances for sharing your ama ing talent.

Challenge
July 02 — 31, 2026
Our host for this month's challenge is Akiko!
"For July challenge, I choose “Memory Box” as it’s Summer and many people go on to summer vacation with family and friends during summer break, and it’s a perfect place to store tickets and other small keepsakes from the vacation ☀️ I have not made the Memory Box myself yet, but own one that Frances made and it has inspired me to challenge myself to make one to document this summer’s family trip to Thailand 😊"
